Chocolate Covered Wavy Lays


LauraTX

Recommended Posts

LauraTX Rising Star

Lays is selling chocolate covered wavy lays at Target for a "limited time only" and, well, that sounds delicious, so I wrote them asking about gluten content since it was not on their list.  Thought I would share with you guys the response I got from the company.  

 

"There are no gluten ingredients in Lay's Wavy Milk Chocolate Potato Chips."

 

According to their gluten-free list (Open Original Shared Link), here is what that means in regards to their products:

 

"The Frito-Lay products listed below do not contain wheat, rye, barley or oat ingredients (we include oats in this list as a precaution as oats are often commingled with gluten-containing grains).  Please note however, some of the products listed below may be manufactured on the same lines as products that contain gluten.  Although our lines are cleaned between production runs, Frito-Lay has not tested these products for gluten content and the ingredients in these products may have come into contact with gluten-containing products prior to manufacturing.  Individuals who are sensitive to gluten should take these factors into consideration in consuming these products."

 

Also note this info is for the US only.

 

So same category as Doritos.  I think I will pick some up to try.

Wait - Doritos are 'safe' (albeit come with a potential CYA cross contamination warning)?  I've never even bothered to look.... this could be a bad thing :-)

I didn't inquire about this or read the label on purpose.

I already sent my boyfriend a text after I saw this post, telling him I need to try them. His response : "Ew" Ugh I can't wait! :P

At the mall Friday night I noticed a candy shop was doing chocolate covered... everything. They had chips and bacon and other stuff but whatever. I almost went in for bacon. Almost. My husband also thinks it's weird. At least I know he won't take them. :D

I've always been interested in the chocolate covered chips - I can't remember why I never tried them! If I liked bacon I would definitely try the chocolate covered bacon. Chocolate can make (almost) anything taste better. Have you tried chocolate covered sunflower seeds? I think they're called Sundrops. They're really good, but idk if they're gluten free..hmm.

The replies to this crack me up!  I do agree, sometimes I think it is good for the size of my rear end that a lot of gluteny things are bad for you, LOL

Omg.  I'm in trouble.  You're truly evil for sharing that :D

We take our chocolate, coffee, wine and snack foods very seriously on this forum!  This combines two of them!  Now...we just need a glass of wine....

Did you see this calorie packed goodness?

I am going out tomorrow and going to buy a bag :) Hopefully they have them!! Hopefully not bought out :)

mommida Enthusiast

I hope they are good!  I have made potato chip cookies before and always thought they needed to be chocolate coated.  (You might think the sound of it sounds gross, but I tell you YUM!)

GF Lover Rising Star

I think Lays finally realized how good it is to dip French fries in a Chocolate shake :D  The potato/choco combo can't be beat.

i want to try them - they probly have soy (lecithin in the chocolate), and soy hates me  :)  here is one of my favorites since sometimes i have to forego the chocolate:  sliced apples, dipped in caramel, and crushed potato chips.  eat immediately.  

 

i would, however, suffer through the soy if the potato chips weren't soggish.....  do i dare to get my hopes up???  :D

 

REPORT BACK!!!  :lol: :lol: :lol:

This says they will be sold at Target only.

Notme,

You do know about Enjoy Life chocolate chips, right?  So much better tasting than any chocolate chip that has soy in them.  If I buy them for baking I have to hide them from the family or they are gone.  Never to be seen again.

bartfull Rising Star

Steak, preferably char-broiled, dipped in hot fudge. One of the best things I have ever tasted. Honestly.

lolz, barty!   (was it very rare?  or marinated?)  i have ever had fish with white chocolate sauce and it was surprisingly delicious...  if i make that for the hubs he might have a heart attack ("WHY in the WORLD would you ruin that steak??!!")  if he could slice it right off the cow and cook it over an open fire with a stick, he would.  chocolate on precious red meat might land me in the street LOLZ   :lol:

Great... There is a Wendy's in the Target parking lot. Now I want a Frosty and fries too. I already feel 10 pounds fatter and I'm not going shopping until Friday!

bartfull Rising Star

Mine was rare, and not marinated with anything. I had a friend over and we cooked the steaks on the grill. He was done eating before I was, so I ran into the kitchen and made the hot fudge sundaes we were having for dessert before I had finished my steak. I came back to the dining room. There was the steak, and there was the hot fudge, and I thought, "Why not?"

 

If your husband would have a fit over it, just let him watch YOU try it. Have the fudge heated and sitting in a bowl. Cut a bite-sized piece of steak, and just dip it in the fudge. When he sees the look on your face and hears the "WOW!", he might just dip a bite of his own.

 

I'm %1,000 serious. It is an even better taste combination than peanut butter and chocolate. It truly is one of the best things I have ever tasted! And NOW you've got me thinking about white chocolate and fish. I am going to look for some corn-free white chocolate, and the next time I go to Rapid for fish, I WILL be trying it.

Sounds delicious!

 

Well, not the white chocolate part. I got into an "argument" about white chocolate with a Teavana guy Monday night at the mall. I told him finally that white chocolate is a lie. (because there is no chocolate in it) With nothing intelligent left to say he said "you're a lie!" Bahahaha. The whole thing was hysterical. Maybe you had to be there. Anyway, I don't understand the white chocolate thing because well... it's a lie. It. Isn't. Chocolate!!!!

 

Chocolate and steak though? I'm signed up!

bartfull Rising Star

Oooh! I just had an idea. Fondue! Put the hot fudge in your fondue pot, cook some steak, some crispy bacon, have some oranges sectioned, maybe some roasted broccoli, some Kettle chips or french fries, and whatever else you can think of. Invite some friends over. B)

bartfull Rising Star

Yeah, I know white chocolate isn't really chocolate, but it sure does taste good!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
